Reverse description Two serpents coiled around a bow case (gorytos) displayed centrally, their heads rearing upward on either side of the vessel. To the left of the central device, the Greek civic ethnic ΛAO identifies the mint city of Laodikeia. To the right, a winged kerykeion (caduceus) serves as a secondary symbol. In the exergue, the magistrate's name is inscribed in two lines in Greek characters, identifying the issuing authority. A Latin legend naming the Roman proconsul P. Lentulus P.F. Imp. appears in the field, reflecting Roman administrative control of the province during this period.
